It is a LiDAR-based technology (Light Detection and Ranging) that emits millions of laser pulses that bounce off surrounding surfaces. By measuring the return time of each pulse, the scanner calculates the exact position of every point in space, generating a three-dimensional "point cloud": a millimetre-accurate digital replica of the scanned site.
Self-calibrates automatically before each scan. No periodic maintenance or manual operator adjustments needed. Reliable data from the very first shot.
Self-levels in seconds. No leveling tripod or station setup procedures required. Set up, switch on and scan.
World-leading manufacturer of survey-grade instruments and professional positioning systems. Industry reference since 1978.
Automatically links scans together without placing manual targets or spheres. Less time on site, fewer errors in processing.
from 4mm to 11mm
Imagine a grid of points at 10m: the higher the resolution, the shorter the distance between points and the more detail captured
2mm
Range accuracy (noise) at a distance of 10m from the scanner
up to 80m
Equivalent to three quarters of a football pitch
500,000 pts/s
Millions of measurement points in just a few minutes
3×10MP HDR 360°
Complete panoramic photograph of the surroundings at each scan position
360° × 300°
Captures the entire environment except directly beneath the scanner
| Resolution | Point spacing | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Low | 11 mm | ~1 min |
| Medium | 5 mm | ~4 min |
| High | 4 mm | ~7 min |
Why measure with a scanner instead of by hand?
Dimensional accuracy of the project
Limited information, only 2D
Measurements are typically taken at a single height or plane. This leads to accumulated errors and missing data when closing the drawing.
360º Capture in XYZ
Complete recording of the environment in three dimensions via point cloud. No closure errors, maximum speed, and no data left behind.
Irregular and non-orthogonal shapes
Difficult to fit
Non-orthogonal shapes (curves or unusual angles) end up poorly represented or "forced" to fit on paper.
Geometric fidelity
Captures the exact shape no matter how complex. The 3D model is an identical mirror of the real structure, ready for BIM.
High zones, gaps and corners
Restricted Access
Physical limitation in high areas or gaps. Loss of information where the operator cannot reach due to safety or distance.
Range up to 80m
The laser reaches any point with direct line of sight; it enters gaps and measures distances in all directions with precision.
From field to office
Manual sketches
Notebook drawings without precision that require drawing diagonals by hand and redrawing everything from scratch at the office.
CAD and BIM-ready files
Point cloud and native files ready for CAD, BIM and 3D modelling. Compatible with all technical software and viewable on any device.
